Abstract
A networked computer system for automated substitution process with reserved connection capabilities. The networked computer system includes a profiler component that collects information about a candidate process and generates a configuration file; a checkpoint generator component that instantiates, suspends, and stores information for execution of the candidate process and creates a checkpoint based on the configuration file; and an orchestrator component that receives the checkpoint and a transition configuration to manage and enact a substitution process for the candidate process for counteracting unauthorized use of predetermined data in the network while maintaining all network connections during execution of the substitution process.

A networked computer system for automated substitution process with reserved connection capabilities, the networked computer system comprising:
- a profiler component that collects information about a candidate process and generates a configuration file;
- a checkpoint generator component that instantiates, suspends, and stores information for execution of the candidate process and creates a checkpoint based on the configuration file;
- and
- an orchestrator component that receives the checkpoint and a transition configuration to manage and enact a substitution process for the candidate process for counteracting unauthorized use of predetermined data in the network while maintaining all network connections during execution of the substitution process.
A computer-readable medium storing instructions for automated substitution process with reserved connection capabilities, the instructions executed by a processor to:
- collect information about a candidate process and generate a configuration file;
- instantiate, suspend, and store information for execution of the candidate process and create a checkpoint based on the configuration file;
- and
- receive the checkpoint and a transition configuration to manage and enact a substitution process for the candidate process for counteracting unauthorized use of predetermined data in the network while maintaining all network connections during execution of the substitution process.
